MOSRPT

Lists
MOS forecasts from the GFS, NAM and NGM models.

Formats

MOSRPT
LISTstate [keywords] MOSRPTid1 . . idn nfcst [keywords]

Parameters

LIST

lists
the valid MOS stations (default); in the output's "Data Types" columns,
a G indicates a GFS MOS station, an E indicates an NAM MOS station, and
an F indicates an NGM MOS station; the NAM MOS and NGM MOS codes are
E and F, respectively, because they were previously referred to as ETA
MOS and FOUS14 MOS, and because the database uses N for NEXRAD stations

state

state
for the LIST option; specify a single 2-character state post office abbreviation,
or ALL for all states (default=ALL)

id1
. . idn

lists
forecasts for these stations and/or states; use 3- or 4-character IDs
for stations and 2-character state post office abbreviations for states

nfcst

number
of forecasts to list (default=1)

Keywords

DATaset=

ADDE
dataset name; specify as group/descriptor or alias;
this keyword is ignored when using the LIST option (default=RTWXTEXT/GFSMOS
if TYPE=GFS; default=RTWXTEXT/NAMMOS if TYPE=NAM; default=RTWXTEXT/NGMMOS
if TYPE=NGM)

TYPe=

MOS
data type; valid entries are GFS, NAM or NGM for the id1 . . idn option,
and GFS, NAM, NGM or ALL for the LIST option (default=GFS); this keyword
is ignored if the DATASET keyword is specified

Remarks

Forecasts
generated from Model Output Statistics (MOS) are based on multiple linear regression
analysis of forecasts from the specified model: GFS (Global Forecast System),
NAM (North American Mesoscale) or NGM (Nested Grid Model). The National Weather Service
terminated the NGM model and its associated products on 03 March 2009 (NWS TIN08-90);
the NGM options in this command are still valid for archive purposes.

Examples

MOSRPT

This entry
lists the GFS MOS stations in all states.

MOSRPT KIAD 3

This entry
lists the last three GFS MOS forecasts for Washington, D.C.

MOSRPT WY TYPE=NAM

This entry
lists the most recent NAM MOS forecasts for all NAM MOS stations in Wyoming.

MOSRPT LIST AZ TYPE=ALL

This entry
lists the GFS, NAM and NGM MOS stations in Arizona.

MOSRPT KPHX TYPE=GFS; MOSRPT KPHX TYPE=NAM; MOSRPT PHX TYPE=NGM

These entries
list the most recent GFS, NAM and NGM MOS forecasts for Phoenix, Arizona. Note
that the NGM MOS station ID (PHX) is different than the GFS and NAM MOS station
ID (KPHX). Use MOSRPT LIST or the STNLIST command to find the correct IDs for
the stations you're looking for.
